Isaiah 52:13‑53:12
INTRODUCTION
Nowhere in all the Old Testament does the gospel of Jesus Christ shine more clearly than in Isaiah 53.
Seven hundred years before Jesus came into the world, God opened the eyes of his prophet to see into the very heart of Christ's saving work.
And the heart of that saving work is substitution.
The Messiah is pierced and crushed in our place.
The righteous in the place of the unrighteous.
The loving shepherd in the place of the lost sheep.
The exalted king in the place of the rebel subjects.
